SET-listed WHA Corporation, the country's largest developer of built-to-suit logistics facilities, is calling for the next government to take advantage of more foreign investment, especially from China, to boost technology transfers and local employment.
Authorities should ensure foreign investment does not solely intensify competition with local entrepreneurs, said Jareeporn Jarukornsakul, chairman and group chief executive of WHA Group.
"Chinese investment continues to increase. They come with big budgets, along with suppliers in supply chains that offer goods at inexpensive prices," she said.
